Who pays for the cost of a fence?
Generally the two title boundary owners (neighbours) are both responsible for the boundary fence. They should share equally the cost of repair or construction of a “standard fence”. The term “standard fence” is not formerly defined in the legislation, although the legislation does state that a fence should be “sufficient for the purposes of both occupiers”. The term is generally taken to mean a fence of the kind and standard usually constructed in that area or estate.
What to do if you want a new fence?
Firstly, contact your neighbour to see if you can agree on the need for a new fence, the type of fence, and who will organise it. You should also discuss its physical placement, which ideally should be on the title boundary line. Then seek a written quotation from a Fencing contractor and copy of it for your neighbour. The quotation should specify the length, height and type of fence, as well as the cost. It should include the cost of removing the existing fence, if applicable.
What is a “Notice to Fence”?
A notice to fence is a legal document that is used in the process of dealing with your neighbour when you require them to pay a share of the cost, a notice to fence should; set out where the fence is to go, the type of fence proposed (i.e. length, height, materials, colour) and the proportion of the cost that each of you will contribute.
What if your neighbour hasn’t consulted you?
If your neighbour builds a fence without consulting you, you are not obliged to contribute to the cost of the new fence. However, if you don’t like the type of fence that has been installed there is little that you can do about it , i.e. you can’t force your neighbour to pull it down, unless it doesn’t comply with building regulations or planning controls in your area. You can check this with your local city council.
